US DJs Kerri Chandler, Louie Vega, David Morales, Dennis Ferrer, Mood II Swing, Roger Sanchez, Todd Terry, Kevin Saunderson and Todd Edwards have all been confirmed as headliners for the event, which will take place in Trent Country Park on Saturday 3 August.

So, this year they're back for more and with their biggest line up to date.
